Do you know what dietary supplements can make you test positive? I've been taking a lot of vitamins and supplements lately

I started in 2020, entered monitoring in 2025 and just continued working there. I just told my manager and CNO because they had to sign something

I have soy sauce all the time

Yeah I'm still in the same job I had before monitoring

I totally agree, the monitoring program stated clearly I have no concerning substance use and yet the Board makes me drug test anyway. They said it's basically the only way they can measure daily compliance. Which I don't get because I submit reports monthly so how does that not measure compliance.

I'm actually not in the program for substances I'm in it for psychosis. But they make you drug test anyway even if you're in it for psychological reasons. I thought that was as low as it goes

Wow I didn't know they had tests that low

I really like the taste of beer and I miss it. I'm gluten free so the non alcoholic options are limited. I found non alcoholic gluten free beer that is 0.2% alcohol. ChatGPT says I would have to consume 58 beers to have a positive ETG at 100 ng/ml. I feel pretty safe drinking this but I'm just wondering if other people have tried this and passed their UA's.

Have you had any trouble finding jobs after finishing monitoring? Is it easier than finding jobs while in monitoring?

How difficult has it been to get hired after completing monitoring? I'm worried about my job outlook for the rest of my life, even after monitoring.

Wow that is really disappointing to hear. I was hoping all of this would be behind me someday. Someone else in this thread is saying it's easy to find a job after monitoring. I want to find out where she got that information from. Can I ask where you got this information from? Is this your personal experience? Someone else in this thread is having the opposite experience. What state are you in?

That's awesome to hear, thank you!

Good to know, thank you. Do you know if people ever get hospital jobs after being in monitoring? Or do most people stay out of the hospital after something like this happens?

So good to hear! Thank you for your responses

Thank you for this! This gives me a lot of hope! I was worried that I accidentally flushed my entire career down the toilet by ending up on the NPDB.
